The specific fixes are in the MP3A readme, available in the downloads at
the veritas support site.
But the real difference to me is that one be at MP3A in order to apply
the (v5.1) security fix. I realize the security fix is not strictly
required if one's firewall is done right, but I'd rather put on the
security fix and avoid one of my machine owner's screwing up. Note:
hackers have been pounding on my ports 13722 for a week or so now.
But certainly Dean is correct ... with v5, your master must always
remain at the highest level, but media servers may trail in maintenance
and still be supported.
cheers, wayne
